★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I feel like they’ve missed the mark. Lots of good information but mostly just photos and quotes. More exhibits and artifacts would make this more than something that could be viewed in a well designed website. The building itself is stunning

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The most beautiful place with the most terrible stories. I cried walking around. I was in awe of the beauty of the building but my heart mourned for all the cruelty.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ On my 2nd visit to Winnipeg, I made a point to revisit this museum. It was very moving, a bit depressing, but hopeful. The staff made me feel welcomed at every turn.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ At the time, Covid restrictions were ramping up but the staff were extremely helpful and attentive to ensure all measures were followed. Beautiful displays! The interior of the building was quite surprising considering such a bold exterior design. Definitely would recommend a visit.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I am moved. This museum found a way to deeply add emotion into all the exhibits. Within 10 minutes of engulfing myself into the stories and history, I was overcome with shivers and tears. From the gorgeous architecture, eye-catching art, to the interactive displays and story-telling, I give this museum a 6 out of 5. Our Canadian history, though filled with darkness, moves toward the light of inclusivity and positive action.
Not only will I be recommending this place to all, but I will be coming back to spend more time on the newly added exhibits. You could easily spend 4+ hours here, though we only stayed for two.
The employees are wonderful people that genuinely care about how you are feeling. While going through the museum, we were asked a few times how we were doing. One particular employee stroke up an empathetic and interesting conversation with us that left my heart filled with love and hope.
Thank you for this incredible experience.
P.S. I'll bring more tissues next time. ?
